Ants display collectively intelligent behavior when foraging for food or fighting off predators.

MUTE is based on research, and experiments show that it works quite well. MUTE's ant-inspired routing is light-weight, robust, and adaptive. Results from experiments in real MUTE networks show that the collective behavior of MUTE nodes quickly finds the shortest (or fastest) routing path between two nodes on the network.

Getting the software

Version 0.1.2 released on April 20, 2007. This release incorporates fixes that will hopefully block all of that unwanted Gnutella traffic in our caches. Everyone who is running a 0.1.1 cache should upgrade it to 0.1.2

You can download MWebCache from the SourceForge mirrors:

DownloadUnix and OSX TAR.GZ archive16 KiBversion 0.1.2
DownloadWindows ZIP archive20 KiBversion 0.1.2

Installation

The Readme file included with the software will help you install the script.

Announcing your cache

Please email the URL for your new cache to me (Jason Rohrer) at jcr13 {AT} users {DOT} sf {DOT} net

Credits

The script is based on the original GWebCache (for Gnutella) by Hauke Dampfling. Joop Bobeldijk modified GWebCache to make the MUTE-only MWebCache.

Their lips move, but no sound comes out.
